Summary:
The documentation focuses exclusively on using the Azure portal (web UI) for app registration and does not provide any command-line examples. There is no mention of cross-platform CLI tools (such as Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph CLI), nor are there any Linux-specific instructions or examples. This can be considered a subtle 'Windows-first' or 'portal-first' bias, as many Windows users are accustomed to using GUIs, while Linux users often prefer or require CLI-based workflows. The lack of CLI examples or references to cross-platform tools may hinder Linux users or those automating deployments.
Recommendations:
- Add examples using Azure CLI (az ad app create, az ad app update, etc.) for registering public client applications, which work on both Windows and Linux.
- Include references or links to Microsoft Graph API documentation for programmatic registration, which is platform-agnostic.
- Explicitly mention that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS, but provide parity by showing how to accomplish the same tasks via CLI or scripts.
- If Powershell examples are ever added, ensure equivalent Bash/Azure CLI examples are also included.
